1. This is a FIRST-CLASS program.

It’s special because it’s hard.

We hold ourselves to the highest standards—on the ice, in the gym, at school, and in the community. To be part of this team, you must carry yourself in a first-class manner at all times. No excuses. No sloppiness. High standards make this program special.

2. Project POSITIVE energy. Have FUN doing it!

No loser talk—only the language of winners.

We bring joy, fun, and an indomitable spirit to everything we do. We encourage each other, never blame, and never tear down.

• Words: We speak positively, with encouragement and accountability.
• Body Language: We show confidence—heads up, shoulders back, eye contact, and engaged posture. No slouching, no sulking, no defeated gestures.

Positivity is contagious, and we choose to spread it.

3. Relentless Compete

Never be outworked.

We play and practice with URGENCY and INTENSITY—no matter the score, no matter the drill. Every shift, every rep, we give our best effort. Hard work unlocks big dreams.

4. Support Your Teammates

You can count on me.

We support and respect each other. You don’t have to be best friends with everyone, but you must be a great teammate.

• Safety: We protect each other.
• Belonging: Everyone matters and deserves to be here.
• Dependability: You can trust me, because I can trust you.

5. Get Better Every Day

Feed the Monster.

We prepare diligently and commit to improvement every single day. Character is what you do when no one is watching. When we’re at hockey, we’re fully present—phones and distractions can wait.

Feed The Monster!
